The flight itself should take about an hour, but with the trip to and from the airports, the luggage and passport controls and the need to arrive before the plane takes off, I would say the travel time between two offices in Amsterdam and London will be at least two hours if not three.
- simonh 6y agoPlenty of people in London have pushing two hour commutes anyway, and City Airport is so quick they don't bother with priority queues. I've stepped out of a Taxi at City and been sitting down in the plane in under 15 minutes, although I wouldn't count on it. If you miss one and have to wait for the next plane the bar does pretty good Eggs Benedict. That's not my life anymore and I don't actually know the Schiphol end myself, but that's what it's like.
- cromka 6y agoI remember back in 2016 when I woke up after a party, at 2 PM, and my flight was at 3:00. It was going to be my first time flying out of the City, so I immediately assumed I wouldn't even be able to check in my luggage on time. Then I remembered it was a last-minute business airport after all, so checked the check-in cut-off times on BA website and couldn't believe my eyes: 20 minutes before the flight. Managed to pack, get a cab from Dalston, get to the airport, check-in and still had time for a quick "breakfast". The smoothest experience ever, barring the hangover. And the views are astonishing!
